Implant Dentistry in the Esthetic Zone is one of the most challenging aspects of modern
dentistry. This presentation will review current methodologies for implant placement
and restoration. Recommendations will be made on soft and hard tissue considerations,
implant placement and temporization to develop proper abutment profiles for long term
esthetics. The customized anatomic temporary abutment and soft tissue impressioning
techniques will be demonstrated.
